Full-Time Mage: Starting from Obtaining the Mysterious Ancient Tree

Chapter 139 Hidden Dangers Strategy Zhu Meng
Hangcheng.

West Lake Villa.

When Fang Yu arrived here, it was already three days later.

When they knocked on the door, they found that it was Leng Qing who opened it.

Leng Qing was tall and graceful, with exaggerated curves in her voluptuous figure. She wore a deep V-neck white top and a black pencil skirt, the fitted clothing outlining her perfect curves.

Wow, this kind of sexiness is probably what many young girls envy most, yet can't imitate with any heavy makeup.

"Have you seen enough?" Leng Qing gave Fang Yu a coquettish, wide-eyed look.

I've never seen a man more rude than Fang Yu. His eyes are practically glued to people. Does he even know what peeping is? Does he have any shame at all?
Next, Leng Qing walked into the villa alone, too lazy to pay attention to this little rascal!

Fang Yu followed along eagerly, asking, "Where's Tang Yue?"

"I'm not feeling well, I'm still upstairs."

Leng Qing glared at Fang Yu, annoyed, and said, "Where have you been these past few days? Why are you only arriving now? Didn't you leave H City a long time ago?"

"I've got some things to take care of. You'll know in a few days," Fang Yu replied.

"Quite mysterious!" Leng Qing glared at Fang Yu angrily.

Fang Yu shrugged and shut his mouth.

After all, the matter of Eagle Red Grass cannot be revealed yet; the event has not occurred, and he cannot possibly know what is going on beforehand.

Just as the two entered the house.

The high heels clicked softly to a slow rhythm, which was very pleasant to listen to.

Fang Yu looked up and saw Tang Yue, mature and graceful, walking down the stairs in a long Mori Girl style cardigan. Her long, slender legs, accentuated by her high heels, were captivating!
"Yueyue, are you alright?"

Leng Qing, Tang Yue's best friend, came to her side and gently comforted her.

Tang Yue raised her head. Her beautiful eyes, though still alluring, were somewhat bloodshot on her exquisitely oval face.
Her lips no longer had the same rosy and charming blush as before; instead, they were somewhat dry, though her skin remained fair and rosy.

Clearly, she hasn't been doing well these past few days.

"Zhu Meng, the head of the domestic hidden danger strategy, has arrived in Hangzhou. His goal is to eliminate unstable factors in the country."

"Although the Totem Serpent is a totem and will not harm humans, its appearance in the city this time caused panic and gave Zhu Meng an excuse."

"After all, the existence of such a powerful demon as the Totem Serpent within the Hangzhou area poses a great threat."

"I'm worried that something might happen to the Totem Serpent?" Tang Yue said.

In the past, Tang Yue wouldn't have been too afraid of Zhu Meng.

But the totem snake is about to shed its skin, a critical period when it is weak, and she is really scared!
Upon hearing this, Fang Yu felt ashamed!
This woman has a strong sixth sense.

Her concerns were valid. In the original timeline, if it weren't for Mo Fan and Lingling, the Totem Serpent would have almost perished at Zhu Meng's hands.

However, he already has a solution to this problem.

“We’re here. Besides, your uncle is the presiding judge. I’m sure he can handle this,” Leng Qing said, gently patting Tang Yue’s back.

"kindness."

In the days that followed, Leng Qing took care of Tang Yue in the villa, while Fang Yu cultivated on his own.

……

Three days later!
Another piece of news about the totem snake has been released.

"A giant snake has been spotted in Hangzhou. It turns out it was the culprit behind the deaths of two hunters!"

"Because the two hunters were directly poisoned and their faces were unrecognizable, they were not identified as human corpses for several days until today. Their identities were confirmed, and they died from the poison when the giant snake appeared."

Fang Yu read the news release word by word, his eyes slightly closed.

Have they made a move?

Fang Yu knew that this was a scheme by the mastermind behind the scenes to harm the Totem Serpent.

It wasn't Zhu Meng, it was another group of people.

He didn't want to deal with these people.

However, that doesn't mean he wasn't prepared at all. They wanted to fight for power and profit, but Fang Yu didn't care, and it had nothing to do with him.

However, since the other party's political maneuvering has affected the people around him, he naturally cannot let the other party control him!
……

The Lingyin Trial Meeting. Inside the conference room.

Tang Yue tried her best to defend the Totem Serpent, claiming that the two hunters who died from poisoning had nothing to do with it. However, she was troubled by the lack of evidence, and the serpent was in its molting period, a sensitive time, so she couldn't call it out to verify.

Ultimately, Tang Zhong, the representative of the Snake Protection Faction, and a group led by Zhu Meng got into a heated argument at the meeting and parted on bad terms. However, it was clear to everyone that Zhu Meng had come with great force and reason, and the local Snake Protection Faction was probably no match for him.

……

Meanwhile, Tang Yue was on her way to the Lingyin Trial Council.

Fang Yu also called Leng Qing to the balcony inside the villa...

Leng Qing possessed both allure and aloofness, her graceful figure leaning back in her chair as she gazed at the shimmering lake outside.

"What do you think?" Fang Yu made Leng Qing a cup of tea and asked casually.

“Based on the information I’ve gathered, there might be other hidden details surrounding the totem beast incident, but the news has spread very quickly, and the situation is already out of control,” Leng Qing said.

“I understand. Zhu Meng has already brought the documents; he’s definitely planning to make a move. In any case, public opinion has already taken hold, and Zhu Meng or the hidden mastermind will surely seize the opportunity to cause trouble,” Fang Yu said.

"So what are you going to do?" Leng Qing asked Fang Yu.

"For now, we should remain unchanged in the face of all changes. I have a way to make the totem snake quickly finish its molting period, and then all the problems will be solved."

Fang Yu looked at Leng Qing and replied, "But I need your assistance to send your people to Bai Town as soon as possible to investigate the traces of the Bai Town problem."

“All my men have been transferred to the West Fortress, and there’s no one left to use,” Leng Qing sighed helplessly.

It seems we still need Mo Fan; he can't leave here at all and needs to evacuate with the Totem Serpent.

"Let's hand the investigation over to Mo Fan. He happens to be in Hangzhou too. Call Lingling over here; the information you asked her to gather will come in handy," Fang Yu continued.

"Alright." Leng Qing got up and left, preparing to make arrangements.

……

After leaving the conference room, Tang Yue rushed to the villa, intending to take Fang Yu to the Three Pools Reflecting the Moon and use the totem bead to carry the totem snake away.

in the afternoon.

When Tang Yue arrived at the villa.

Fang Yu said to her, "Regarding the plague incident at Baizhen Post Station, Lingling's investigation has revealed a possible connection to a batch of government blood serum. Therefore, we need Mo Fan's assistance in the investigation, and it just so happens that he and Lingling have been working together for some time now."

"So we need to wait for Mo Fan to arrive before we evacuate."

"Okay, I understand." Tang Yue trusted Mo Fan quite a bit. It was this student who delayed the evacuation of the Black Vatican's blue-clad members during the assessment at the main campus of Mingzhu Academy, allowing the Inquisition to successfully complete the arrest.

A moment later, Mo Fan, who had been invited by Fang Yu, arrived at the villa.

"Teacher Tang Yue, it's been a long time." Mo Fan greeted Tang Yue first.

"Long time no see," Tang Yue said with a smile.

"What do you want?" Mo Fan asked Fang Yu, puzzled.

"First, congratulations on surviving. Next, I called you here because there's something I need your help with. It concerns the giant serpent you saw," Fang Yu said directly.

"Huh? What the hell? Is it too late to leave now?" Upon hearing this, Mo Fan immediately wanted to leave.

"Don't panic. Let me put it this way: although that giant serpent looks scary, it's actually a totem beast that's keeping the demons around Hangzhou in check," Fang Yu said.

Afterwards, Fang Yu also told Mo Fan about the matter that he needed Mo Fan's help.

"So, they plan to have me investigate the plague incident, the deaths, and the blood serum," Mo Fan asked curiously.

"Mm," Fang Yu replied.

"But!" Mo Fan scratched his head. Although he had watched many episodes of Conan, that didn't mean he could become a famous detective!
"I've already called your partner Lingling. She has a lot of information on her," Fang Yu prompted.

Mo Fan was taken aback; he hadn't expected that Fang Yu would actually know Lingling.

"When you were collecting spirit essences within the Dongting Lake area, Lingling and I collaborated for a period of time," Fang Yu explained. "Also, the shed skin of the Totem Xuan Snake is often an important material for high-quality armor and magical artifacts. If you help, I'll give you a piece of that shed skin. You don't even have a decent magical artifact. The shed skin of the Totem Xuan Snake can be made into top-grade armor and magical artifacts."

"Haha, how embarrassing!" Mo Fan said, rubbing his hands together.
Four departments need to be supported, and for Mo Fan's situation, there's only one word to describe it: poor.

Fang Yu understood Mo Fan's situation. After all, if it weren't for the ancient tree, he might be even poorer. Giving Mo Fan the shed skin of the Totem Serpent to make top-grade armor and magical artifacts as payment wasn't unreasonable.

It's fair to say that Mo Fan's little mudfish pendant isn't powerful enough! It's disappointing. He's so excited over just one piece of armor.
